Transcript or Index | I reply by return of post to yr last night’s Letter, to prevent all unnecessary suspense – I communicated yr Letter immediately to my Bro[the]r & after considering it very minutely[?] he desired me to inform you that in the Character of Guardian he felt it quite impossible to sanction the idea[?] you had fixt upon – but as you are of age to Chuse Another Guardian, he can do you no injury in re[..]ing nothing as fixt that he accepted at your request, & that he has had the vexation to find yr Conduct had always rendered inutile[?] in the present state of y[ou]r affairs it would be Absolute ruin for you to give up The Trusteeship. He looks upon that trust as sacred, & if you are moderate in y[ou]r Expectations, & will let him know what is necessary for Your present expences he will make any reasonable advance To serve you with this indulgence you I trust you will make a proper use of this indulgence. I cannot give you the advice you [sic] respecting y[ou]r Bro[the]r being totally ignorant of the Circumstances of the case & quite unacquainted w[i]th y[ou]r Bro[the]r’s disposition & of the degree of affection & Confidence that subsists between You – Excuse great hurry |
